    Judge Jesus Is At The Door 1) Be content 2) Be patient

    Last week we learned that our God is like the next door neighbor who loans you his lawn mower and gives you fresh snap peas from his garden. Whatever you need (though not whatever you want), he’s happy to give it to you. Just ask – even if it’s the middle of the night! But our ...read more

    The Second Coming should move us to serve and not be self-indulgent.

    When I was about 12 years old I was contacted by our pastor to see if I would be interested in cleaning out the house of a woman who had passed away. I eagerly agreed, thinking that this would be an easy way to make some shekels. I wasn’t prepared for what I found. The entire house was ...read more

    James tells us why we should be patient in the face of injustice.

    One of predominant themes found in the book of James is that of “problems.” Another reoccurring theme is “prayer.” Still another is “patience.” Here, we find James exhorting his readers to be patient and prayerful in the face of their problems. James cites three ...read more

    Why does James get so harshly judgmental against the wealthy?

    “Faith That Works: Principled Living” James 5:1-12 Throughout his letter, James has been bold and blunt. He’s not wasted any words as he has outlined the basics of living out the Christian faith. He has told us to be tough in tough times, to stand firm against temptation, to ...read more

    James warns rich believers not to abuse their wealth but to use their wealth for future spiritual gains.

    What is your investment strategy? Generally speaking, when it comes to financial investment, the greater the potential return, the greater the risk.

    The way I acquire and use wealth is a good measure of my spiritual health.

    I grew up in a typical blue collar family. My dad managed one of the very first fast food restaurants – the Lucky Wishbone – and my mom stayed at home taking care of four kids. She didn’t work outside the home until all of us got older, so for much of my life, our family got by on ...read more

    There are serious consequences in mishandling money!

    Money is the root of all evil! True?? This is often misquoted! 1 Timothy 6:10 is the truth which states that the love of money is the root of all sorts of evil. We talked about this a few weeks ago from the end of James 4; money is a necessity for living; but the love of money, being money ...read more

    The Bible tells us a lot about being rich. Jesus, James and Paul all taught on this subject.

    When looking at the roots of Labor Day seeing the evil & greed on both sides, it begs the question, "Is this REALLY something we should be celebrating?" What about the "labor strike" that started when humanity rebelled against God? How will it be settled?

    Tomorrow is Labor Day! Illustration: Reaching the end of a job interview, the Human Resources Person asked a young accountant who was fresh out of school, "What starting salary were you thinking about?" The Accountant said, "In the neighborhood of 100,000 a year, depending on the benefits ...read more
